Subject: Reply to "love the idea hoping to get a few things cleared up"
Hi! XOWA developer here. I've replied to the question in a forum post at https://archive.org/post/1064035/archiveorg-torrent-link-not-showing-for-https-archiveorg-details-xowa_enwiki_latest . However, I'm reposting here for added visibility.
Also, feel free to post future questions to either https://github.com/gnosygnu/xowa/issues or https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:Gnosygnu
I updated the instructions for setting up English Wikipedia. Check http://xowa.org/home/wiki/App/Import/English_Wikipedia.html . In brief, here are the instructions:
* Download XOWA from https://github.com/gnosygnu/xowa/releases
* Unzip it to C:\xowa
* Run xowa_64.exe (or xowa.exe)
* Go to Download Center by doing Main Menu -> Tools -> Download Central
* Add English Wikipedia - Articles to the Queue
* Press Run and wait for it to download and install
Because English Wikipedia takes some time, you may want to try first with the Simple Wikipedia entries on Download Central
Let me know if you have any questions or run into any issues.
Thanks!

I absolutly love this, that you can download all of wikipedia like that and boom works... except idk what to download there is the torrent one and then the 7z and the zip. when i went to http://xowa.org/home/wiki/App/Import/English_Wikipedia.html it said download a single file, im looking at option no. 3 because it seems easier but wasnt sure what specific gile to download or if i just donwload them all or what so i thought ide ask except i dont use forums and cant figure it out (super lame... i know) and just wanted to ask which specific files thats all dont know how else to get your attention i guess. im sure you deserve 5 stars as soon as i can figure it out.
